The main event of this week is a visit to the Limassol General Hospital.
Ask why? I have a chronic pain in my right shoulder that has worsened. I have been painting every day for my entire life. 5 hours a day and rarely rest. A few years ago, the same thing happened in Odessa and I suffered for a long time until I found the right doctor at the Lermontov sanatorium.
Having lived in Cyprus for the third year, I have practically never consulted local medicine, with the exception of one visit to the dentist.
And now I have dared. Before I begin to describe my adventures, I must note that we, Ukrainians, have the opportunity not to pay for our visits. This is part of the support program.
Day one. Sylvia previously told me that upon arriving at the hospital we must find the reception desk and make an appointment with a doctor. We couldn’t find the reception, but they sent us to the ambulance. There I managed to talk to the doctor, who immediately sent me… He said that we had to go to the Old Hospital. What did we do? We had a hard time finding the hospital, and even convincing the doctor to see me right away, although the receptionist was surprised – how without a prior appointment?
The doctor listened to me and gave me a referral to an orthopedic surgeon back to the General Hospital. We went there the very next day, I was too tired.
The second day.
Here the most interesting thing begins – we start running through labyrinths of corridors in which nothing is clear. It all reminded me of the cockroach runs in the movie The Run. In addition, the cockroaches were still sick, some had a broken leg, some had high blood pressure.
Having completely gotten entangled in the system of labyrinths, we ended up in the gynecological department by accident. And there was a reception, and in it a beautiful and kind woman who helped me to get an appointment for a visit after her numerous calls to the heavenly call center. And so my visit was scheduled for the following week.
Day three – the visit.
The visit time was scheduled, and as it turned out before it, registration was required again. The miracle of the Fairy of Gynecology, who the day before had suggested that I return to her before the visit and she would help with this too. I did so.
The visit was scheduled for 11. 15 – Everything was civil. The doctor started the appointment only after 2 hours. A crowd of cockroaches gathered, many of us were on wheelchairs. By one o’clock in the afternoon I still got to the doctor and, having become an experimental cockroach, I was examined by students! But they did an X-ray, wrote out a referral for physiotherapy, and also gave me a prescription for painkillers. That’s all for today. I’ll tell you more later.
